In Victoria, Australia you get a blood test once every six months as a registered fighter.

I fought for five different shows and only one required me to have bloodwork done. A lot of the shows my friends have fought pro in didn't require bloodwork either.

The issue is that what tests are mandatory varies from state to state.
